That's great, Strix!

Coding and Sleeping

I decided to go ahead and take the 4th off and the 5th and 6th too. Maybe I can catch up on some projects.

Because books.

Happy birthday week, sj!

Yay for sleep, Strix!

Missed my chance to go to the Longwood Gardens fireworks show last night (with fellow Buffy fans, from the old Bronze: Beta board) because the car was acting up on the way home from work. Running the A/C is apparently not going to work when it's this hot ... which is the reason for A/C. Ugh. I'm going to get to work today a dripping mess of sweat.

But on Saturday morning Catherine and the production team in the kitchen sang the Marseillaise before the French match started, and that was fun. And then France won! So all was joyeux at the bakery.

It's too hot.

Yay Strix! Good sleep makes such a big difference in one's life.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Congratulations, Strix!

Yay birthday week!

Doing nothing with the three days I'm in the ofice this week sounds AWESOME. This huge cup of coffee is no substitute for the nap I really want (I don't really want a nap, I want to still be asleep. I was having vivid and almost coherent dreams about convincing the US to bail out of capitalism - not restful and not satisfying to wake up from)

Ann, that's a ferret.

Congrats, Strix!

I am in office only two days this week! I'm very excited about that.

This article made me side eye so hard. I totally understand and respect being stealth whenever you need. But REPUBLICAN?? Are you ducking kidding me?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Good news: Rescuers found a group of Thai boys and their coach who had gone missing 9 days ago. They were exploring a cave system that flooded. Everyone was still alive.

Our wings are not tired.

That is beautiful news, Dana.

I am empty nested! Brendon moved into his own apartment yesterday. He had nothing but an air mattress in the place at the moment, but he stayed there last night. His days off are tomorrow and Wednesday so we'll go a thrifting.

Oh good! When I heard about that on the radio it didn't sound very hopeful.

From meara's article:

Everyone loves you, until they know a little bit about you, and then they're all whispering about you at church.

That just struck me as so accurate.

The whole article makes me so sad.
